If you are going to take I-95/I-85, please watch your speed along the US 58 corridor. The Virginia counties in that area are known for speed traps and for some of them this is how they make extra revenue- with the proceeds from the speeding tickets.

Now for some good stuff..just got back from BJ's with one of those multi variety packs of candy bars for tossing onto the ice.

Just remember I'm cheering on the inside, while I will be putting on my stern-but-fair judge face on. Prepare your rotten tomatoes, but remember you are throwing them at one of your own. One of your own carrying a precious child. Who wears glasses, and you wouldn't hit a gal who wears glasses.

Wow, just have fun - I'm looking forward to it all. Good luck!

OK I'm really glad you guys posted this. This is my first adult comp and though I've read about it here, I did not realize I should get things to throw on the ice!

going to Target tomorrow anyway and will load up!

Terri I'm glad our event is Sunday so I can watch this on Saturday to understand what gets thrown and when

Target has really cute stuffed animals in their 1-spot ($1). I bought a bunch for my pre-school learn to skate classes, I have them carry it to a basket. Although lately I've been seeing them for $2.50. But my friends are worth it!

Enjoy all!

Better check before you throw anything.

I volunteered my twins to work as Sweepers on Saturday and was told that there would be nothing to pick up because Adult Sectionals was low-key, unlike Adult Nationals.

Just a word to the wise.

LOL! Sounds like someone needs to give a "word to the wise" comp organizers. I can't imagine they would actually outlaw throwing....they probably just think no one is going to. He, he, he.....


(now, if there's a hockey net up all around the rink, that would indeed require some creativity, but I'm sure the would-be throwers are up to the task )

Where there's a will... there's a beneficiary!!! I think the only thing that's you probably can't throw are the vodka nips...but only b/c the bottles are glass. That is either rolled, put in unsuspecting skater's water bottle or "creatively delivered" during the event.

There is a hockey net above the glass around most of the rink, almost all the way to the two-story ceiling. I was looking at it from the upstairs window while I worked out last night and thinking "How could they throw anything unless the nets are raised/lowered?"

I'll bring clothes and skates for my kiddies, just in case there's a change of plans. You can have matching sweepers until 3pm or so, if the Club says okay.

I don't think the Club's planning on it, though, so you might be on your own if they say no. (I hated bending over to pick things up from the ice while wearing a skirt, lol.)

Good luck all championship masters ladies! Miss you all and hope to be there next year. No more babies!- Lauren

Go Lisa! Hope you qualify.

Good luck, twice good luck, thrice good luck to everyone at every adult sectionals but especially to those friends I was blessed enough to make at the 2008 adult mids last year. I hope you all skate well and are pleased with your performances. I'm sorry I won't get to see then - but I may just break down and buy the videos! Special warm wishes to Marie Sherry, Cindy Crouse, Chris Williams, Larry Scibilia and Lauren Yahiro, Bill Papineau, Valerie Knoelk, Courtney Schafer,Maureen Linhardt, Melissa Garland and all the other fantastic skaters I had the great privilege of meeting just a little over 11 months ago. You'll all be marvelous out there !

Love and warm wishes from Mimi Razim-FitzSimons and her daughter Laura, who accompanied me last year and who also made too many friends to count! To "Dr. Larry", my Laura, who may be your biggest miniature fan, sends you a "thumb war" especially, for extra good luck !

you didn't keep a straight face but are well skilled at the art of seducing a panel
